as soon as I saw the Less is More challenge theme I knew I had to play.....One layer and stencils. What could be better????

I used that fabulous iStencil and did some masking, as you can see with sponging the upper half in black and the lower half with rainbow colors. Added the cute little animals - they are from Cats on Appletrees. ( I recently bought about half of their stamps.....no kidding).

Playing with Big Cat #9 - its my favorite. Have used it several times so far and I am sure this will not be the last time .....

The cat is appearing behind those pretty Branches - magical - isn't it? I used Brushos for the background and the cat got colored with Inktense pencils, what else would I use? I cut the water color panel with a die by Simon Says Stamps and mounted it onto black card stock.

I stamped the flowers and wet them with a brush. Sprinkled Brushos on them, moved the color around a little bit and waited for the water to dry. Added Finetec to the center of the flowers - you can only see this on the photo below. I heat embossed the sentiment and added a scrap piece of water colored card stock between the sentiment and the card.

Sponged around with the the inks you see in the picture, including black soot. I heat embossed the sentiment and used a stitched border die to die cut the sentiment strip.

It kind of looked OK, but I was not entirely happy. So I used a stitched rectangular die, matted it on white and black card stock and added Wink of Stella to the wings and an enamel dot. Too bad you can't really see the sparkle in the picture.

You may know this already, but just in case you don't.... We have a new feature here at So Suzy's.

Connected through our love for card making, blogging and being from Germany we (Tanja fromLittle Art Cottageand I) decided to create a monthly project within predefined requirements. We are going to show you the result every 2rd Sunday of the month and this is our thirty fifth transatlantic get-together!To have even more fun we are joined this time by Mac Mable from The Sweetest of Peas. Welcome Mac Mable! I am sure she will have an amazingly creative treat for us!

This time it was my turn to pick the requirements:Easter Egg

You may remember that die cut I used for the last Stamp Connection? Well, here it is again. This time without color and framed by a negative egg die cut. I set the fox free and he delivers a golden egg to Mrs. Rabbit and her mischievous child, which you can see dangling from the tree. The baby is cooped up in the tree house. Can't blame her. After all she is busy watering the potted plants....

The prize will be a $20.00 Gift Card from So Suzy Store and you need to comment in So Suzy's Blog and in our owns blogs from Saturday until Monday 12 at midnight. Winner will be announce on So Suzy Facebook page on March 15th.
